After playing a few organized fort matches this afternoon (for me (GMT -7)), I thought of a great idea:
Every Saturday and Sunday (or just Saturday because most Europeans have to wake up early to go to work/school on Monday), we all (meaning 10-16 or so players) meet in a fortress server (whether it be Café, |x|, FTS, CT(not WF)) and play some "Wild 'n Wacky"/"Silly" organized fortress matches. In normal English:
Every Saturday night at say 23:00 GMT (11:00pm GMT), players congregate in a fortress server for a few organized matches, say best of 5. Of the 14 or so players present, 2 team captains are randomly elected. Everyone then enters spectator mode and a "draft" happens (captain 1 picks a player, then captain 2, etc.). Once everyone is on their respective teams, the match is reset (or if no admin is present, the match is played to completion for "practice") and the fun begins.
To prove that this method is great for having fun matches, the first match we played like that today was won 100-99 and the second one was almost as close as well (100-96 IIRC).
And if this catches on, maybe we'll have a wiki page that shows screenshots of the matches and has little rosters of who played in the matches etc.
This is not a tournament, but rather a chance for fortress players to enjoy fun organized matches on the weekends.
- Just another idea.
